If you notice on my photo's thread there is a picture I took of the back of the post office from the trail. This was while standing 30 feet away maybe ? from the wood bridge on the west side of the canal. it might be possible someone saw something, I would have hoped they had come forward by now. I will look at the angle next time I am there (wont be for while) and check to see of that is possible. anyone in a vehicle looking over the bridge or possible walking over the bridge on Colonial might see as well. We might want to take this particular discussion to Nicoles thread in the other location. Choco... posted a link above for her thread. Also if you look in one of my photo's there is a park bench I shot from accross the canal, that is approximatley where it occured.Thanks very much for clarifying this, I was going by a brief verbal description only. So she was actually nabbed, killed and located *before* the bridge area? Doesn't really change anything in my mind but makes the crime more frightening because it seems like that area would have much more of a 360 degree view, making the killers actions even bolder and scarier. If a person is in the back parking lot of the post office would they be able to see right across the river to the trail where the crime occurred?
It makes me wonder if they have a CCTV video of her nab because in most cases the back of a federal building would have CCTV. I wonder if they have based part of the description on a video as well as other details of the crime that they aren't divulging. Of course it would be dependent on that section of the trail being visible from CCTV in the back of the PO. How dark is it there at 6-7PM in June?
Scary stuff, and I want to thank you for your time and efforts. In all the hullaballoo about the A's it is easy to forget that there are other crimes crying out to be solved.
In june it would have been light out at that time. Gets dark probably just after 8, which is when the actual park closses.
P.S. notice the guy standing by that park bench? he is shooting an olympus slr into the woods, looks like it is directed at a tree stump! But as he walked around he showed me an "unussual sighting" he snapped a picture of me taking a picture of the woods! I told him to destroy that before it breaks his camera!

sigh.... apparently many people have been in this area looking and lurking and photog'ing The deputy told me the had gotten half a dozen reports a day about people, someone called in to say that they saw a man sitting on the bench! They asked well how do you know he is not just tired from jogging and took a rest? Many cries of wolf!

A woman on a bike with a baby seat asked me what I was taking pictures of. I said the woods trees buildings etc. The deputy said it's people like her that would make such a call.
It is better to be safe then sorry but please sue some discretion

And words of advice!!!! I am a hell of a nice guy and look like it but tell your kinds to NOT SAY HI TO STRANGERS! MHO anyway! Not in a park not when they are on a bike 100 yards ahead of you. Fortunately when he reached a point across the canal that he was no longer in sight of his mother and her friend he stopped his bike, at least they taught him that much
